Serendipity

by Kelsey Garland

“Whenever you are creating beauty around you, you are restoring your own soul.” – Alice Walker

“Serendipity” is made with ArtResin, Alcohol Inks, Acrylic paint, and hand-cut paper. Using a silicone mold, I create a background of Resin and Inks and paint onto the Resin and then layer with and more resin again to create a unique, three-dimensional painting that is constructed entirely by hand. I paint realistic wildlife on top of resin and then encase each image in more resin, forever entombing my work.

This painting measures 6.5 inches & comes with a sawtooth bracket attached to the back for easy hanging. depicted is a Anna’s Hummingbird, which are Native to the Pacific Northwest and frequently visit my garden. Hummingbirds are seen as a sign of good change to come, they are often seen as lucky spirits and are thought to bring good luck if seen during a major event in your life.
